Genesis 32
1 When, Jacob, had gone on his way, there met him, messengers of God.
Nanonjohy i lia’ey t’Iakòbe le nifanalaka ama’e o anjelin’ Añahareo;
2 And Jacob said, when he saw them, the camp of God, is this! So he called the name of that place, Mahanaim.
aa ie niisa’ Iakòbe le nanao ty hoe, Toben’Añahare itoy, le natao’e ty hoe Makanaime i toetse zay.
3 Then did Jacob send messengers before him unto Esau his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.
Nirahe’ Iakòbe ty hiaolo aze mb’ amy Esave rahalahi’e mb’an-tane Seira, tane’ i Edome añe,
4 And he commanded them, saying, Thus, shall ye say to my lord to Esau, Thus, saith thy servant Jacob, With Laban, have I sojourned, and tarried until now:
le nafanto’e ami’ty hoe, Endeso mb’amy talèko Esave añe o entañe zao, Hoe ty enta’ Iakòbe mpitoro’o, Nañialo amy Labàne ao iraho, le nitambatse añe ampara’ henane;
5 And I have oxen and asses, flocks and men-servants, and maid-servants, So I must needs send to tell my lord, that I might find favour in thine eyes.
Amañ’ añombe naho borìke, mpirai-lia naho ondevo ampela naho lahy; le nampihitrifeko mb’ amy talèkoy mb’eo ty saontsy hahatreavako fañisohañe am-pahaisaha’o.
6 And the messengers returned unto Jacob, saying, —We came in unto thy brother unto Esau, moreover also he is on his way to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
Nibalike mb’am’Iakòbe i ìrake rey nitalily ty hoe, Nivotrak’ amy Esave rahalahi’o zahay, le mb’etoan-dre hifanalaka ama’o rekets’ondaty efa-jato.
7 Then was Jacob greatly afraid, and in distress. So he divided the people that were with him and the flocks and the herds and the camels into two camps,
Nirevendreveñe naho nangebahebak’ amy zao t’Iakòbe; le zinara’e ho lia roe ze hene ondaty ama’eo naho o mpirai-liao naho o mpirai-trokeo vaho o ramevao
8 And he said. Should Esau come upon the one camp, and smite it, yet shall the camp that is left escape.
fa hoe re, Aa naho pok’ami’ty lia-raike t’i Esave vaho horidañe’e, le hifiora’ i sehanga’ey.
9 And Jacob said, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, —Yahweh, who wast saying unto me, —Return to thy land and to thy kindred that I may deal well with thee:
Le hoe t’Iakòbe, O ry Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame raeko naho Andrianañahare’ Ietsàke raeko, ry Iehovà nanao tamako ty hoe, Mimpolia mb’ an-tane’o mb’amo longo’oo mb’eo vaho hanoako soa.
10 I am too small for all the lovingkindnesses and for all the faithfulness, which thou hast done unto thy servant, —For with my staff, passed I over this Jordan, But, now, have I become two camps.
Tsy mañeva ahiko ty piliti’e amo fiferenaiña’oo naho amo figahiña’o amo mpitoro’oo, kanao reketse kobaiñe Iraho te nitsake ty Iordane toy vaho fa aman-dia’e roe henaneo.
11 Deliver me I pray thee out of the hand of my brother out of the hand of Esau, for I, am afraid of him, lest he come in and smite mother as well as sons
Mihalaly ama’o, hahao am-pitàn-drahalahiko, am-pità’ i Esave, fa ihembañako, hera homb’eto re handafa ahy naho rakemba reketse keleiañe.
12 But, thou thyself, saidst, —I will deal well with thee. So will I make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which is not to be counted, for multitude.
Ihe fa nitsara ty hoe, Toe hañasoa azo iraho, vaho hampiraeko amo fasen-driakeo o tarira’oo, ze tsy mete iaheñe ty amo fifamorohota’eo.
13 And he tarried there that night, and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother:
Aa le nitobe eo re amy haleñey, vaho nilivae’e amo raha rinambem-pità’eo ty ho ravoravo amy Esave zoke’e:
14 She-goats, two hundred; And he-goats, twenty; Ewes, two hundred; And rams, twenty;
ose-vave roanjato, naho oselahy roa-polo, añondri-vave roanjato naho añondri-lahy roapolo,
15 Milch camels, with their colts, thirty; Cows, forty; And bulls, ten; She-asses, twenty; And young he asses ten.
rameva minono rekets’ ana’e telopolo, añombe-vave efapolo, añombe-lahy folo, borìke vave roapolo, vaho ana-borìke folo.
16 And he gave them into the hand of his Servants, each drove by itself, and said unto his servants—Pass over before me, and, a breathing-space, shall ye put betwixt drove and drove.
Natolo’e an-taña’ o mpitoro’eo irezay, sindre lia’e, vaho hoe re amo mpitoro’eo, Iaolò Iraho naho adaradiso ami’ty lia-raike ty lia-raike.
17 And he commanded the first one saying: When Esau my brother shall fall in with thee, and shall ask thee, saying Whose art thou? and whither wouldst thou go? and to whom belong these before thee?
Le hoe re amy aoloy, Ie mifanampe ama’o t’i Esave zokeko, manao ty hoe, Ama’ia irehe? Homb’aia v’iheo? vaho ho ama’ ia o aolo’oo?
18 then shalt thou say, To thy servant Jacob: It is, a present, sent to my lord, to Esau; And behold he himself also is behind us,
le hoe ty hatoi’o: A i Iakòbe mpitoro’oy, ravoravo nampisangitrife’e amy Esave talekoy; Indroy ie! manonjohy anay.
19 And he commanded the second also, and the third yea all that were going on behind the droves, saying, —According to this word, shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him.
Izay ty nafanto’e amy faharoey naho amy fahateloy, vaho amo nanonjohy i mpirai-lia rey iabio, ami’ty hoe: Ty hoe zao ty ho saontsie’ areo amy Esave te mizo aze
20 Then shall ye say, Also, lo! thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said: I must pacify him with the present that goeth on before me. And, after that, will I see his face: Peradventure he will accept me.
le tovoño ty hoe, Ingo, manonjohy anay t’Iakòbe mpitoro’o; ty amy asa’e ty hoe, Hampanintsiñeko amo ravoravo miaolo ahio ty haviñera’e; ie añe le ho treako ty lahara’e, ke ho no’e.
21 So the present passed over before him, —whereas he himself tarried that night in the camp.
Aa le nitsake aolo’ aze i banabana’ey, ie nialeñe an-kialo atoy.
22 And he arose in that night and took his two wives, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, —and passed over the ford of Jabbok.
Nitroatse amy haleñey re, ninday i vali’e roe rey naho i mpitoro’e roe rey, vaho i ana-dahy folo-raik’ amby rey nitsake ami’ty fitsaha’ Iabòke.
23 So he took them, and sent them over the brook, —and sent over that which he had.
Nasese’e mb’eo naho nampitsahe’e i torahañey vaho nampitsahe’e ze tama’e.
24 And Jacob was left alone, —and there wrestled a man with him, until the uprisings of the dawn.
Aa le nidoke ho vahiny t’Iakòbe vaho nigarabiñe ama’e ty lahilahy ampara’ te niporea’ ty maraindray.
25 And when he saw, that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, —and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was put out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
Ie nioni’e te tsy hahagiok’ aze, le pinao’e ty fikatsoha’ ty moja’e, vaho nikatsoke ty moja’ Iakòbe amy fifandrapaha’ey.
26 Then said he—Let me go, for uprisen hath the dawn. And he said: I will not let thee go, except thou have blessed me
Le hoe re, Avotsoro fa hanjirike i àndroy. Fe hoe re, Tsy havotsoko naho tsy itata’o hey.
27 Then he said unto him—What is thy name? And he said—Jacob.
Aa le nanoa’e ty hoe, Ia ty añara’o? Iakòbe, hoe re.
28 Then he said—Not Jacob, shall thy name be called any more, but Israel, —For thou hast contended with God and with men and hast prevailed.
Le hoe re, Tsy hatao Iakòbe ka ty tahina’o, fa Israele, amy t’ie nifanehak’ aman’ Andrianañahare naho am’ondatio vaho nahatañe.
29 Then asked Jacob and said, Do, I pray thee, tell me thy name! And he said—Wherefore now, shouldest thou ask for my name? And he blessed him there,
Hoe ty nañontanea’ Iakòbe, Ehe, itsarao ty tahina’o. Fa hoe re, Ino ty añontanea’o ty añarako? Le nitata’e eo.
30 So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel; For I saw God face to face; and my soul was delivered,
Aa le natao’ Iakòbe ty hoe Penoele i toetsey, ami’ty hoe, Nifañatre-daharañe aman’ Añahare iraho, fe narova’e ty fiaiko.
31 And the sun rose on him as soon as he had passed over Penuel, —he, moreover was halting upon his thigh,
Nanjirike i àndroy t’ie nitsake e Penoele ty amy moja’ey.
32 For this cause, the sons of Israel eat not of the nerve of the large hip-sinew, which is by the hollow of the thigh, until this day, —because he touched the hollow of the thigh of Jacob, in the nerve of the hip-sinew.
Aa le tsy fikamà’ o nte-Israeleo pake henane ty oza’ i moja mipitek’ am-pikatsohañey, amy te nipaohe’e ty oza’ i fikatsoha’ i moja’ Iakòbey ami’ty lahin-oza’ i tohakeiy.
